Hey Everyone,

Wondering if anyone can help me with my question. This is for Excel 2010, work related.

I have 2 excels which i use. 1. Customer 2. Info.

Basically i want something where i can open Customer excel and press a button to open file explorer to select the info excel and copy X columns from that and paste into the customer excel. At the moment i am manually copy and pasting the column from info to customer and I am sure there a easy way to do it. Info excel has multiple sheets i have to copy from.

Many Thanks,

Click the italics "fx" icon to the left of the formula bar to open the Functions Arguments dialog. Help is displayed for each argument.
If it is always the same range that you're copying, you could use the macro record feature. Works pretty slick.

Yeah it will always the same range, 5 different columns that need copying.

Just need help with the coding to make it work.
